(...) That's brilliant work, very true to the original. Nice little detail bit on that front landing wheel. Does the side door open? It would be cool to open it up and stick a little Saito minifig in there with an impossibly ginormous sniper cannon! (19 years ago, 29-Apr-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Very cool! I'm not that familiar with the source material (seen the show; don't remember the copter), but your helecopter looks awesome! The way the front of the chopper angles forward makes it appear quite aggressive. I love the duel rotors, and (...) (19 years ago, 27-Apr-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)

I like the shape, like the grille-teeth, like lots of stuff about it. I can't, however, understand a sports car (vehicle) in any shade of brown. Sports cars gotta be red, yellow, black, or British Racing Green. IMO. :-) (19 years ago, 26-Apr-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)
